Imagine your next family movie night with lifelike 3D effects. With the Samsung BD-F5900 Blu-ray player and a 3D-ready TV, you can bring the theater experience home. Pop in the latest 3D Blu-ray disc and prepare to be wowed. Even in 2D, your movies and shows will explode with crystal-clear detail, on Blu-ray or DVD. And with decoding for all the latest high-resolution surround sound formats, like Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, you can experience the audio equivalent of 3D with truly immersive sound.

Endless entertainment options, without the wires

Load up your Netflix® queue and stream movies wirelessly thanks to the F5900's built-in Wi-Fi. Or check out the latest viral videos on YouTube™. And if you own a Samsung smartphone or tablet, this player lets you stream content from your device to your TV. And don't forget about Samsung's AllShare streaming with compatible networked PCs, for sending home movies, digital music files and photos right to your home theater.

Be a couch-surfing web surfer

That front-panel USB port might not catch your eye at first. But it makes the 'F5900 even more versatile. It's perfect for use with USB flash drives loaded with music and photos. Or pop in an empty one to download BD-Live content from Blu-ray discs, including deleted scenes, trailers, and games. Or add a wireless USB keyboard, pop the adapter in the port, and take advantage of this player's on-board web browser, so you can surf the web on the big screen while kicked back on your couch.

Blu-ray Disc players  the ultimate picture and sound

Blu-ray players deliver a better picture to your HDTV than any other available source. In fact, Blu-ray's 1080p picture is a perfect match for the 1080p screens found on most current TVs. Blu-ray movies also offer the most precise and realistic surround sound you can get. These players do a terrific job with standard DVDs, too  you'll see a cleaner, clearer picture with every disc in your collection. Many Blu-ray players can connect to the Internet for watching online movies from Netflix® and other video services.

Samsung F5900

I am late to the bluray scene and with this being my first bluray player I am very happy. The load time from my older samsung dvd player is better and the picture of the bluray is a nice improvement. I was happy with the price and combined with Crutchfield's fast shipping and customer service this is why it is a 5 star rating.

Significant improvement

Significant upgrade, excellent suggestion from Crutchfield advisor. We did not need the 3D, but the Bluray pictures was significant improvement. Netflix was a priority, and it works flawlessly with excellent quality. Loses a star only b/c attempts to run audio out through the optical port (HDMI for the TV only with my old amp) has proven problematic. Most users with a proper HDMI connection will likely have no problem

Pros:Excellent picture from 'net or DVD or Bluray. Plug and play. Good luck historically with Samsung products.

Cons:Build quality is not confidence inspiring, but no worse than any other Blu-ray models where software is likely more important (I have a Samsung DVD player which is bulletproof through much travel, feels much more substantial).

I'm pleased

Pros:Small, priced right, easy setup. The build quality is on par with other of players in this price range. The wireless is stable and works well for me.

Cons:Not really a con, but the web interface is cumbersome with the remote. It is usable with the Samsung Smartview app, but I don't know why manufacturers include Internet access on these type of devices anyway.

Good Player

Overall a good player for the money, if you pay less than $100. The build quality is good and the player works well with blue ray DVDs.. I have not checked the 3D performance.

Pros:Unit comes up to speed quickly
the picture is great
the controls are easy to use (cannot put anything on top since that is where the controls reside)
Easy to use
Wireless connection set up is well done
The wireless key board capability is a nice touch

Cons:The wireless connection screen is poorly set up and slow compared to my other BD players.
The internet connection has a really big pointer that is difficult to use even with a wireless keyboard.

More Samsung Garbage!

Written By TAG, Portland OR on Tuesday, February 18, 2014

I would rate this a zero, except that it does function, at times. Cosmetically, unit is hideous to look at and of horrendous build quality. Unit weighs in the range of a handful of discs....hmmmmmm. Buttons on top are not buttons, just highly touch sensitive and useless. Unless you leave unit by itselt on top of cabinet, etc. you WILL constantly turn unit off when meaning to eject, etc.

Speaking of, this unit loves to turn itself on and off.....by itself or when you in the middle of a great movie. The wifi is useless, as it constantly disconnects. Interesting that wireless TV, two wireless computers, two phones and numerous guest devices had no problem, while this unit is unable to stay connected. On a seperate note, it also locked me out apps such as Redbox and Netflix. Turned device off and immediately opened apps via TV/Computer/Phone. Beware if you are childless and a Netflix user - the interface forces you to choose between regular and child versions each time you access. The entire experience is disgusting - Samsung gives you a few big boxes and a few more smaller boxes to choose from. The only difference between this and the look of an Atari 2600 is that the graphics are smoother with the Samsung.

Should you save half a movie for tomorrow, you will most likely have to search for where you left off. Turn the "BD" garbage off - unit will constantly pause to search for content that does not exist. Spend the $ and buy quality, which Samsung is not.

Pros:It will play a disc, but so does my 15 year old unit....and with much less fuss. It will allow you to use some popular apps, when it feels like it.

Cons:Terrible build quality, horrible interface, extremely poor wifi, highly glitch prone. Do yourself a favor, do the research and buy quality. Samsung is all about pumping units out for the masses. Their customer service is non-existent - period. They blame any reason you call them on everything but their product. To appease you, they may assign a number and promise to call back....which does not occur. Referring to other Samsung experience besides this here. Two words - DON'T BUY!

Good Blu-ray, not so good streaming

There was much to like about the Samsung F5900: It loaded fast, image was excellent, user interface was good. I went with the Samsung even though I have had good experience with a Sony S5100 in the same location (rarely dropped signals, usually 720P picture, occasionally 1080P or 480P). However I have Samsung TV in the room where I wanted the device. I got the F5900 not just for DVDs but to stream videos also and alas it did not do good job in my location. I use a range extender to reach the room with the TV and reception is fine on a Macbook Pro. However the F5900 kept dropping the signal so I had to return it.

As always, Crutchfield is a great place to do business and the return was painless.

Samsung BD-F5900

Its a smart blue ray player, have played blue rays on it a couple of times, works fine. Don't use it for Smart capabilities, since my Tv is smart. I gave it an extra star cause I got it included with a tv that i bought, cant beat free.

Samsung BD-F5900

Even thou I do not own a 3D TV I moved up to this model for the better processers and speeds it delivers. Connected to my wi-fi in a matter of seconds. My wife loves the fact she can run Pandora thru this. We are hard wired to our Denon receiver but Pandora freezes of will not load. Not a problem yet with this unit. Video and audio playback are great. Have not Netflix yet because I prefer the sound and picture quality the disc provide. Internet surfing not very fast but I did not buy this for that reason.

Mixed Feelings

Written By A.B, Raleigh N.C on Saturday, January 18, 2014

I bought this based on Crutchfield customer reviews which I dont trust so much so after my purchase. I still think the world of Crutchfield and its customer service just though. First off the wifi connect is hit or miss I purchased it for the wireless capabilities in the first place it has a hard time staying connected although no other wireless device in my house has any issues. Second the drive motor for the disc player is unacceptably loud. I owned a cheap phillips dvd player that was quiet as a mouse. I expected better build quality from a unit at this price. I thought maybe I got a dud until I was on another website and saw several reviews for this unit with the same issues. I just wonder why none of Crutchfield's customers had these problems? Anyway if you are not bothered by those issues its not a bad unit but I would probably spend a few dollars more and shoot for something better.

decent blu-ray player for $99.

Good picture quaility, quick set-up and easy to use. Not a standard size dvd player (smaller), awakard design with play buttons on top, cannot stack any components. Samsung tv and Samsung blu-ray player talk (turns the other on).

Pros:nice bright led bright display when unit is on to display movie elapased time, picture quaility is very good with HDMI hook-up in to my Samsung 55" 6300 LED TV, cheap price $99.

Cons:no analog audio, only HDMI and optical so if you have a intergrated amp without optical input you will need to to add external DAC with Toslink to play through external speakers. May not be an issue for many who have newer AVR receivers with HDMI. But I am using a Yamaha A-S500 and will soon buy the Marantz PM-6005 (which has built in DAC). Top mounted control hard to see and unit cabinent is smaller, not standard size.

Samsung BD-F5900

This is replacing a Pioneer Blu-Ray that was just taking too long to load a DVD. My first impression focused on how compact this player is compared to the Pioneer. It is about 1/3 the size. I am really impressed how quickly this DVD player loads and the quality of the picture and sound. I have an older Samsung 55 inch plasma TV that is not 3D, but it doesn't seem to matter. Easy to connect to the home WiFi. I have all of the apps loaded (simple) and am just starting to use them. Remote is simple and intuitive to use. It is hooked up to a Denon AVR 1910 and thanks to the Crutchfield Tech who helped me solve my AnyNet issue quickly and easily.

BD 5900 SAMSUNG BLUE RAY

Written By jeff, billsville on Thursday, December 26, 2013

works great but if i stop a movie and shut the machine off then start back up it does not go to where i stopped it goes back to the beginning and i can't figure out how to set up the wireless for netflix?

"Excellent DVD Player" Samsung BD-F5900

Love the small size and the remote. DVD player was easy to set-up and connect to the internet. Loved the NETFLIX button on the remote. We do not have TV so we only watch Netflix, movies or connect to the internet wireless. We also use the DVD player to connect to Pandora. I would recommend this player to anyone.

It's a Blue Ray Player

Well, it's a Blue Ray player. I chose this one as a match to my Samsung TV and it works well together. I thought the control buttons being on the top were an interesting location and seemed nice. However, I've discovered that if you stack the unit in a cabinet, or below other components, the buttons can be hard to access and see. Worse, you may accidentally turn on the player without intending to when accessing other equipment. A bit annoying.

Pros:Does what it does well, has nice online features, small and light

Best Bluray DVD ever

I replaced a BD-D5500 wireless with the BD-F5900 and have never been happier with my decision. I now have a great BluRay DVD player, and I can directly access Netfliix and Pandora and many other APPS wirelessly.

Samsung BD-F5900 Blueray DVD player

Works like it's supposed to... so far. ...Had a sony before this,... it didn't last a year. To the wise...? Dont buy a sony. Super sharp movie experience. Colors are great and easy to operate. Just put in the disk and it does it all, press play at the beginning of the movie. Just what an electronically challenged guy needs.

Samsung BD-F5900

Was not looking for a high end machine, but something of decent quality and works well. I have not tried all of the features but the internet feature worked well except typing info into the browser was a little cumbersome and ineffecient. For the money I paid, I am happy with it so far.

GREAT PLAYER

This is my first 3D Blu-Ray Player so I really didn't know what to expect. It works Great with my 3D Samsung TV and the 3D is really amazing when viewing a 3D Blu-Ray Video. To me the 2D to 3D conversion (In any TV or player) is really somewhat of a joke. I've haven't seen anything worth watching in 3D mode when using conversion. Maybe somebody will figure out how to upgrade the conversion process so it's worth watching. The smart function works great, but I really don't need it since I already have it on my TV.

Samsung BD-F5900

Have had for just a week but has played everything I put in it. Movies look great and even attached a card reader to the USB port to view pictures and videos I had taken. All worked well even the avchd video files with no complaints. Very happy with this unit so far.

Great picture but audio sync is a bit of a challenge

Rated thee star because not sure if all BR players have the lip sync issue or just this one. Can adjust manually but want to do away with hassle of that. Mthinkit is only on BR and not on DVD. Great picture tough and overall very happy.

Review of the Samsung BD-F5900

As this device was only recently purchased, the performance of this device over the long haul cannot be critiqued. However, this 3D Bluray player loads quickly and interfaces easily with the Samsung LED TV purchased to to with it.

Great unit

The Unit works great. The only complaint I could make is the controls are on the top of unit (in case my remote were to go haywire) and that it is not the standard 17" width for stereo equipment. I have all components in rack, so it looks a little out of place...

Samsung BD-F5900

Good video quality and sound. machine is slow when selecting apps and initiating them. User interface is nice and fairly easy to navigate. My main issue with it is that Samsung has chosen certain preferred apps that are placed on the front page and are uneditable ie Netflix cannot be removed and replaced with amazon. Not a huge problem but would be great if this was an interchangeable option.

Outstanding BluRay

Outstanding BluRay. I bought this primarily because I wanted to take advantage of its internet capability. I found set up and connecting to my high speed internet connection seamless. The quality of streaming is superb. I did find that I needed to upgrade my router to get the best connection. My only comment it that the Samsung software for Pandora on my older BluRay continuously floats the album cover and song title across the screen. The 5900 does not do that. Instead it floats the Samsung logo. Minor and it probably saves energy, but irritating nonetheless.

Samsung Bkue Ray

Cons:1. when turned on it takes over my Sony Smart TV, even just to eject a disc.
2. Still haven't figured out how to stream music from my PC to this device, and my stereo. It needs a good audio player/iTunes app.

Nice Blu Ray Player

A 1st class Blu Ray player. You plug it in, set up in 5 minutes and everything just works. Beautiful picture, fast screens, nice remote, easy to use and operate. Wi-fi works great. Digital audio output works great with my soundbar. Many blu ray players did not have this option.

Pros:Fast screens, loads netflix fast, blu ray players have a good picture. Looks sleek. Does not take up much space. Good upconvert on DVD's. Easy to use.

Excellent Product

I am very pleased with the Samsung BD-F5900. Sleek design, easy set up and produces an excellent picture quality. During the set up process, the unit recognized my network and completing the connection was effortless. I later ran a firmware update through the menu options. It downloaded quickly and updated without any problems. Discs load quickly and the picture quality is impressive. I am very satisfied with this player and the price was right. Outstanding service from Crutchfield. My order was shipped the same day I placed it and packed very well for a safe arrival.

Pros:Quick load, easy to update firmware, great picture quality, easy set up

Samsung knows their stuff!

This Blu Ray player is the best one I've owned out of three. It was so easy to setup the wifi and get the firmware updates. This player is almost like getting a free Apple TV built inside, the YouTube an Netflix apps are great!

Pros:Easy to use, loaded with amazing options and it is compact. Even works with my Panasonic's Viera Link to turn the tv on and off when the player is.

Samsung BD-F5900

Great picture quality!! Loads Blu Ray discs fairly quickly. Just hope it lasts longer than my last Samsung, which stopped playing Blu Ray discs after a year and a half. Removed one star because some engineer though it would be wise to place the control buttons ON TOP of the player. Not a good place for the controls when stacking components, even if it is the top component.

BD-F5900

I have had this unit less than a month, and can not comment on any long term aspects of this 3D Blu-ray Player; nor can I comment on its ability to play Blu-ray 2D or 3D disks, since I have none. The unit installed easily and, so far, it has worked flawlessly. I am awaiting the delivery of several Blu-ray 2D and 3D disks. After these disks arrive, I will update this review,

Nice player

Needed a Blu-Ray player to pair with my Samsung flat panel TV. Set up out of the box was quick and everything worked. The integration between the player and my TV and the compatibility of the remotes is great, but it is annoying that pressing the eject button on the player turns on the TV. I just wanted to get the disc out - to be fair, there might be a setting, but I haven't looked. Performance, picture is great, and the load times are far better than my 2 year old Toshiba player.

Pros:Does everything expected at a good price.

Cons:Small size means it must be on top of cable boxes or other components. Pressing Eject turns on the TV.

So far so good ... with a couple of quirks

This is my first Blu-Ray player, so I don't have anything to compare it to. My old DVD player died, and I needed something for renting Netflix videos. So far, I like this machine a lot, especially for the price. It does triple duty as a DVD player, a CD music player and a wifi streaming device. The wifi is great, allowing me to stream Netflix movies ... although the Netflix interface is a little strange. It isn't as friendly when it comes to browsing titles as my old Sony Media Player. I haven't used the Web browsing, and can't imagine I ever would. I just discovered two quirks with this machine: When I pause a movie for more than 4-1/2 minutes, pressing the Play button does not resume playback! I called Crutchfield, and the tech didn't know what to do about this. In the end, I searched online and found the solution: You have to press the Enter key to get from the paused state to a state where playback is possible, and then you press the Play button. Very strange and unintuitive design! The second quirk, which I understand is common among Blu-Ray players, is that if you stop a movie and turn off the machine, it doesn't remember where you left off when you resume watching. Apparently, you have to set a "bookmark," which I haven't tried yet. I've read that this has something to do with the programming language of Blu-Ray players. But all in all, I'm satisfied with the price and the features list. And yes, the picture is great!

Pros:Great picture. Wi-fi streaming.

Cons:Weird "Pause" state. Doesn't automatically remember where you left off in a movie.

Perfect fit!

I'm impressed! It's smaller, lighter, and simpler than a lot of other Blu-ray players out there. I hooked it up to my Samsung LED TV and it looks wonderful. Once I realized that my receiver didn't support passing 3D signals I connected the Blu-ray to my TV directly. Everything synced up and I was able to test 3D performance. I gave a set of glasses to my 6 year-old and she said "It looks like it's right in front of me!"

Pros:Light, Compact, Simple controls

Cons:For the reasons I listed in the Pros section it may seem "cheap" feeling. The flap/door to the USB connection could have been designed much better.

Samsung Blu Ray player BD-F5900

Excellent Unit! Easy installation,,out of the box, 2 cords,,, play your discs. Stunning picture from a unit attractively priced with an array of additional functions. And the best part of all,,my call to a Crutchfield technical Excelleadviser who helped me decide on the unit by answering all my questions regarding its functioning with my Bose LIfestyle Surround System plus suggesting additional HDMI and Monster Cable cords which worked perfectly.....

Samsung BD-F5900

Very nice, compact, piece of equipment that fulfills its primary disc playing duty excellently.

However, when I tried to establish a WiFi connection problems ensued. Even though my router is only 25' away (with very little infrastructure in between) The F5900 could not maintain a connection. My Roku and my Home Theater Receiver, which are located right next to the F5900, have no problem streaming from the same router.

Contacting Samsung technical assistance was little help. They seemed to be totally unfamiliar with this relatively new BR Player, and simply offered "standard" tips for WiFi connection. I finally purchased a Cisco/LinkSys WiFi bridge and attched it to the F5900 via its ethernet port. The bridge is able to maintain a strong WiFi connection, no problem. Minus one star for the weak WiFi, and minus another star for poor technical assistance.

BTW, the internet browser is a welcome addition, but its performance is barely acceptable.

Pros:Great little Blu-Ray and DVD player.

Cons:Weak WiFi connection. Technical support was dificult to reach and not very knowledgable about this product.

Big Improvement

This is a big improvement over the Samsung BD-E5900, which I returned to Crutchfield after it failed to live up to my expectations, but that was another review. This unit is far superior in every way, the Smart-Hub and settings menu have an updated streamlined design which makes the whole user experience better overall. The on board web browser is usable with the remote alone (works GREAT with a wireless keyboard w/ track-pad also) because Samsung added a pointer speed setting, which means when you set it at full speed, the pointer all but flies around the screen so selection and clicking is much faster then on previous models with a browser. In fact all typing and keyboard based operations (network set-up, password entry, etc.) is much faster and simplified due to the new user interface. If you have other Samsung products with Smart features like BD-Wise and Any-net, this is the perfect companion Blu-Ray player. The network sharing and Samsung mirror features are also a great addition for those of us with Samsung smart phones. The disk playback is fast (use fast start feature) and quiet, and the disk tray is also much more smooth and quiet then previous models. The picture quality and 3D images are as good as any I have ever seen, much more along the lines of what I have come to expect from Samsung. I have mine matched with a Samsung HDMI receiver and Samsung 3D TV, along with my Galaxy S3, and this one will be staying right here with me! Fantastic overall Blu-Ray player.

Pros:Size, this is the smallest one I have ever owned.
Price, no need to spend more when this one has it all!
User interface, best by Samsung to date, in my opinion.

Cons:I would like to see some more speed from the apps when loading from the Smart Hub, some have longer loading cycles then others, but I am really trying to find a "con" with this unit. That's about it!

Product Research

Disc & USB Compatibility

Disc Compatibility: The Samsung BD-F5900 Blu-ray disc player is compatible with
many disc types.

Disc Type

Disc Description

Blu-ray

BD-ROM, BD-3D, BD-R, BD-RE

DVD

DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW

CD

CD-Audio, CD-R, CD-RW

Blu-ray Disc Overview: Blu-ray Disc (BD) is a high-definition
disc format designed to take advantage of today's high quality HDTVs. The
resolution is up to 1920 x 1080 (1080p) and the data transfer rate is up to
40 mbps. Blu-ray Discs and players offer several advantages over the
standard DVD format:

Better Picture
Quality: Blu-ray Disc is a true high-definition format offering
video at 720p, 1080i, 1080p, or 1080/24p resolution. While standard DVDs look very
good on an HDTV, they don't provide a high-definition signal (not even
when you use an up-converting DVD player). Blu-ray Disc delivers an
extraordinarily sharp, clean, detailed picture, with deeper, richer
colors.

Greater Storage Capacity: What makes Blu-ray Disc's superior picture and sound
possible is the much higher storage capacity of Blu-ray Disc discs. A
single-layer Blu-ray Disc can hold 25 gigabytes of data, over five times
the amount a standard DVD can hold. Dual-layer Blu-ray Discs hold 50
gigabytes, which equates to nine hours of High Definition or 23 hours of
Standard Definition video, plus high-resolution multi-channel audio and
the added features and material that require multiple discs with
standard DVD.

Backward Compatible: To ensure backward-compatibility
with your existing library of discs, Blu-ray Disc players use a
dual-laser mechanism: a blue laser for playing high-definition
Blu-ray Discs, and a conventional red laser for playing DVDs and audio
CDs.

Note: Like DVD, BD uses region codes. The region code on
your disc must match the region code on your player, otherwise the disc will
not play. The BD-F5900 is Blu-ray region A and DVD region 1. Blu-ray Disc
uses the Advanced Access Content System (AACS) to prevent unauthorized
recording of copyrighted material.

Firmware/Software Upgrade:
As Blu-Ray technology continues to evolve, new disc types with enhanced
functionality will become available. In order for you to enjoy this new
functionality, you will likely be required to update the firmware in your
player. These firmware updates will become available for downloading from the
Internet. The player's Software Upgrade menu allows you to upgrade the player's
software & firmware for these performance improvements & additional services.
You can upgrade via Network or USB.

Note: The tested Samsung Blu-ray player contained
firmware version BSP-F5900WWB-1003.2 (as of 3/14/2013). Visit the
Samsung Download Center for the latest Firmware/Software updates.

USB Port (with ripping): The Samsung Blu-ray disc player
features a front-panel USB (type-A) port that allows playback of MP3/WMA audio
files, JPEG/PNG still-image files, and MKV video files stored on a USB mass storage
class device. Your USB device must be formatted in FAT16, FAT32, or NTFS. The
player also allows you to rip CD-Audio to USB. The ripping function converts CD
audio from an inserted disc to the MP3 format and saves the converted files on a
USB device connected to the Blu-ray player. In addition, the USB port also
allows you to perform software upgrades using a USB flash drive. In addition, it
can be used to add more local storage for BD-Live content.

Note: A USB device consuming more than 500mA requires a
separate power supply device for normal operation.

Video Section

HDMI ver.1.4: The Samsung Blu-ray player is equipped with an
HDMI (v.1.4) output. HDMI simplifies A/V connections by carrying video and
digital audio all in one cable. The HDMI output resolution can be set to 480i,
480p, 720p, 1080i or 1080p when playing a DVD or Blu-ray Disc; also 1080/24p
when playing a compatible BD.

Note: The Blu-ray player provides no analog video
outputs.

1080/24p: Movies are
typically filmed at 24 frames per second and some Blu-ray Discs use the same
frame rate. If your TV will accept a 1080/24p signal, the BD-F5900 can pass the
signal in its native form, without converting the video.

Video Up-conversion: When connected to your TV using the HDMI output, the BD-F5900
scales the output of a standard DVD signal to HD-compatible 720p, 1080i, or
1080p. The unit also supports 480p and 480i output if your television is not
HD-compatible.

Progressive Mode: The Samsung Blu-ray disc player provides a
Progressive mode to improve picture quality when viewing a DVD movie.

Full HD 3D: The Samsung BD-F5900 3D Blu-ray disc player
supports 3D playback of high-definition 3D Blu-ray discs when connected to a
3D-Ready HDTV via HDMI, along with wearing a pair 3D vision glasses. You can
select from three 3D modes to suit your viewing needs.

Auto: Automatically detects the 3D capability of your
connected TV and play a 3D Blu-ray disc in 3D or 2D accordingly.

3D-to-3D: 3D Blu-ray disc played in 3D mode regardless
of your connected TV. When your connected TV does not support 3D, you may
see a black screen.

3D-to-2D: 3D Blu-ray disc is played in 2D image at all
times. Choose this to view a 3D Blu-ray disc without 3D effect.

Deep Color: Deep Color allows more accurate color reproduction with
deep color depth. The BD-F5900 must be connected to a Deep Color compatible TV
via HDMI for this feature to function.

BD Wise: BD Wise is Samsung's latest inter-connectivity feature. When
you connect Samsung products with BD-Wise to each other via HDMI, the optimum
resolution will be set automatically.

Bonus View: The Bonus View feature provides
picture-in-picture capability with select Blu-ray Disc titles. You can view
addition content (such as director/actor commentary) in a small display window
while the movie is playing.

Audio Section

Dolby Digital/DTS Surround Decoding: The BD-F5900 can decode the following Dolby Digital/DTS surround formats; Dolby
Digital, DTS, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby True HD, DTS HD High Resolution, and
DTS-HD Master Audio. The player must be
connected to a Dolby Digital/DTS surround AV receiver which also supports these
same formats via optical or HDMI input.

Digital Output/Surround Mode Chart: You can set the unit's
Digital Output (HDMI or Optical) to match the capabilities of your connected AV
receiver.

PCM Downsampling: This
feature lets you choose to have 96kHz PCM signals downsampled to 48kHz before
they are output to your AV receiver.

Downmixing Mode: This
feature lets you select the multichannel downmix method that is compatible with
your stereo receiver. You can choose to have the player downmix to normal stereo
or to surround compatible stereo.

Dynamic Range Control: When
movie soundtracks are played at low volume or from smaller speakers, the system
can apply appropriate compression to make low-level content more intelligible
and prevent dramatic passages from getting too loud. This is only active when a
Dolby Digital signal is detected.

Digital Audio Output: The Blu-ray disc player features a
digital optical (toslink) output. The player's audio menu allows you to select the
digital audio format that is passed through the optical digital output;
bitstream (Dolby Digital or DTS) or 2-channel PCM.

Note: The Blu-ray player provides no analog audio
outputs.

Network/Internet Functions

Samsung's Dual Core Processor: Samsung's Dual Core
processing speeds allow you to perform multiple tasks at the same time, such as
using an app while downloading another one. It also enables faster web browsing
and application access.

Network Connection (wired/wireless): You can set up the
Samsung Blu-ray player so that it can access your home network and online
Samsung Apps through your local area network (LAN) using a wired connection (RJ-45
Ethernet) or wireless connection (built-in WiFi). You can setup a wired network
connection automatically or manually. You can setup the wireless network
connection using these four methods; PBC (WPS), Auto Network Search, One Foot,
or Manually.

WiFi Direct: When using WiFi Direct, you can connect
directly with other devices without using a wireless router. You'll be able to
wirelessly transfer personal content (such as photos & videos) to the Samsung
Blu-ray player without connecting to your home network. WiFi Direct completely
bypasses your WiFi access point/router, so it's easy to set up. Streaming of
copy-protected content and other certain formats are not supported.

AllShare/DLNA Certified: The Samsung Blu-ray disc player's
AllShare function, along with its DLNA Certification allow you to watch videos
(MPEG), photos (JPEG/PNG/BMP/MPO), and listen to music (MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV) saved on your Windows PC
(or other DLNA Certified media server) through the TV via its Ethernet (LAN)
port or built-in WiFi (wireless). This eliminates the need to copy your photo,
video, and music files to a separate USB storage device.

Note: Windows PCs with XP and Vista installed require
Samsung's PC Share Manager software, which can be downloaded for free at
www.samsung.com. Not compatible with older Windows OS versions and Mac.

Screen Mirroring: This Screen Mirroring function lets you view
the screen of your WiFi-enabled Samsung Android smart phone or tablet on your TV you
have connected to the Samsung Blu-ray player.

Samsung Apps: Samsung Apps lets you download for pay or
free-of-charge applications and services to the Blu-ray disc player and view or
use them on your connected TV. You can enjoy a variety of content from various
downloaded applications; such as videos, music, photos, games, and news. Samsung
Apps has a growing collection of pay and free-of-charge online applications that
connect you to some of your favorite online content; such as movies from Netflix
or Vudu, TV shows from Hulu Plus, videos from YouTube, music from
Pandora, and social updates from Facebook or Twitter. Once connected to your
home network, you can visit the online Samsung Apps store from the TV's Smart
Hub menu and download free Apps or purchase advanced applications. The following
App categories are available.
